On today’s dojo, Tony talks natural disasters and how we, as a community, respond to them. Anticipating the arrival of Hurricane Ian as it approached Florida’s West Coast, Tony reflects on previous hurricanes that have been met by Florida’s coastline, noting that many are still working to recover and heal from storms from over a decade ago.
When it comes to natural disasters, it affects everybody. No matter where we are geographically, shelters are getting activated due to increased occurrences of natural disasters. During these times, people with disabilities tend to be the most vulnerable population, before, during, and after disasters. Unfortunately, we are not yet at a place where we have systems in place to ensure all their needs are met, especially in the aftermath when the charge is recovery and helping people get back their lives.
Disasters are going to keep happening and our ability to respond efficiently and effectively is something that needs our attention today. Once disaster strikes, these issues become much more complicated. To ensure that all people are safe before, during, and after disasters, is something that we have to continually work towards getting better at, if we want to evolve together, as a culture, a community, and group of people that are connected and unified.
Remember to.. “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
